Schilling shared a post on his Facebook page that featured a photo of what appeared to be a man cross-dressing with a caption that read: “Let him in! To the restroom with your daughter or else you’re a narrow-minded, judgmental, unloving, racist bigot who needs to die!!!”

Schilling did not caption the post, but did post in the comments section: “A man is a man no matter what they call themselves,” Schilling wrote. “I don’t care what they are, who they sleep with, men’s room was designed for the penis, women’s not so much. Now you need laws telling us differently? Pathetic.”

Schilling wrote a blog post in response to the criticism he is receiving, saying it is his opinion and he doesn't represent anyone but himself.

"I do not care what color you are, what race, what sex, who you sleep with, what you wear, I don't care and I never have," Schilling wrote. "I have opinions, but they're just that, opinions."

ESPN released a statement regarding the incident: "We are taking this matter very seriously and are in the process of reviewing it."

This isn’t the first time the former Red Sox has come under fire for comments on social media. Schilling was suspended by ESPN for a Twitter post about Muslims and Nazis. Schilling did apologize for the tweet, but was suspended through the 2015 MLB postseason.

The Facebook post has since been removed from Schilling’s Facebook page. The debate on public facilities for transgender people has become a national issue and is even an issue being debated on Beacon Hill.
